TOYS for TOTS' original artist

Here's some trivia for you....do you know who did this original poster art? How about the logo still used today? Hendricks began the program in 1947 and it was so successful that it expanded nationally in 1948. Hendricks needed artwork and a logo for the national campaign so he called upon his good friend Walt.........Walt Disney.

Comic News: B.P.R.D 1947

Straight from the Dark Horse website.

"In 1946, the Nazi Occult Bureau's Project Vampir Sturm threatened to destroy the fragile peace following the end of the Second World War. A year later, the B.P.R.D. learns that there are creatures far older -- and far more dangerous -- than the Nazis' creations, as a lone vampire nobleman ruthlessly hunts the survivors of the Third Reich.

Joshua Dysart (B.P.R.D.: 1946) and Hellboy creator Mike Mignola team up with Gabriel Bá (The Umbrella Academy) and Fábio Moon (Sugarshock) for a new chapter in the hidden history of the B.P.R.D.!

* A direct sequel to the critically acclaimed B.P.R.D.: 1946!

* Art by Eisner Award winners Fábio Moon and Gabriel Bá!

A chilling old-world vampire tale!
